POLITICAL NEWS.

Every now and then this dotter catches
on to something new and fresh in the po-
litical field.
The question asked of us oftener than
any other is: 'fWill the two Executive
Committees combine and larmonize-or
will they keep apart, and in the end be
the means of placing in the field two sep
arate Parish tickets7'
Our answer is, we know not; but trust
they will, and as true Democrats, pull to-
gether for the success of the party and its
nominees.
Since our last several of the 'sbig guns"
have been in Alexandria, and have talked
around quite freely. They look to an ear
ly adjustment Of the present difficulties
between the two committees. This is as
it should be.
This dotter learns that several candi-
dates are already announced for Clerk Of
the Court, viz: Ledoux Smith, from the
Lamourie Ward; Sam Blum, from the
Cheneyville Ward; John A. Dixon, from
the Hineston Ward; B. F. Scott, from Le-
comte; John Hickman, Rigolette Ward.
We hope Maj. Watts will be candidate
for reelection, for he, we know, will b,
hard to beat.
Cheneyville banks high on her big vote
in the Convention.
Alexandria wont get left.
And as to the Senator-who wants it +?
We have heard Of two names already, but
it is too early to give their names to the
public.
And so it is-now and then you see u
knot Of politicians talking these things
over and over, and so the political pot is
kept boiling. Verify we believe the com
ing campaign, as to Parish officials, will
be warm one.
And then in the District. Mr.. John C.
Ryan is out for District Attorney, and he
stands good chance.
Hon. w. F. Blackman is for Judge, and
he can't be beaten.
Nobody, it seems, wants to go the Leg
islature. Thenewspaper men here should
be consulted-may be they can dig up a
patriot hereabOuts who will allow himself
to be slain for the good of his country.
But this is enough-next week we will
continue where We left off.
